In While adoption of telecommuting is on the rise across Indian enterprises, and promises to bring in potentially large gains in productivity and substantial savings in both time and cost, it is important for IT managers and the organisations totake some basic steps that can go a long way in making it a success.
- Provide telecommuters with proper technical, technological and logistical support to ensure that they are able to do their job effectively
- Put in place proper data security measure to ensure quality of data and avoid intrusion or any cyber attack triggered through the weak external link of a telecommuters system
- Install a mobile management system to keep a regular check on data security policies for the remote devices
- Ensure adequate communication infrastructure is in place for a real time interaction and collaboration from point to point and point to multi-point
- Frame policies to restrict unauthorised access and downloading of files
- Help telecommuters understand the tools and provide special handbooks or reference guides to help them use technologies and access information and expertise
